Yosemite: Save Pages document to specific folder

The very first Pages save that you do, verify that the button adjacent to the filename to be saved has its triangle symbol pointing upwards. This gives you far more organizational capability with a Favorites sidebar, new folder creation, and improved navigation to where you want your document saved. A file menu Save As… operation requires that you press the option key when accessing the File menu.

Apple tends to hide things now.

Always look for the small "Expand" triangle next to fields to reveal the other options.

I didn't say the option key, I said clicking on the small triangle will reveal your options.

And your name is at the top of all your posts.

As I stated, the triangle is parked on top of a button. By default, it is down. Click on it, and the triangle points up, and you have more save panel accommodations. Apple was not influenced by the 30 years of MS Word product releases.

Dr. Ann, I'm curious about this, too. The mystery triangle sounds potentially exciting but I am not seeing it.

Prior to Yosemite and El Capitan, the Save/Save As… button symbol in question was not an arrow, but an actual small triangle, and now, though I clearly see an arrow, my brain keeps identifying it a triangle. It is an arrow from this day forth.

Thanks, Viking! I don't know whether to be relieved (that I was not failing to see something) or disappointed (that there's no secret triangle to be found).

The odd thing about Apple's recent penchant for making features "discoverable" instead of obvious is that, who knows, there might be a secret control that unlocks untold possibilities. I have to keep reminding myself to try right-clicking on everything, and Option-clicking, and now on newer devices (iPhone 6S, new MacBook, Apple Watch) there's the 3D touch option. Who knows what this thing might do, given a chance? This is probably amusing but one doesn't always regard it that way.

Reminds me of Peter Cook's joke about how the only time you can't see the invisible man is when he takes off all his clothes, making him an invisible nudist.

Since we can't see him, heaven knows how many invisible nudists there are on the TV. For all we know there may be thousands.

Apple's OSX design team obviously researched this and found an ingenious way to have thousands of features that nobody can discover leading to the possibility that there may in fact be millions of additional features that we also can not discover, and that the competition can not steal. So future proofing OSX as the leading OS of all time!

Can one infer from the image what the next version of OS X will be named?
